'Rather' in the Bible
“Take my instruction rather than [seeking] silver,And take knowledge rather than choicest gold,
How much better it is to get wisdom than gold!And to get understanding is to be chosen above silver.
Let a man meet a [ferocious] bear robbed of her cubsRather than the [angry, narcissistic] fool in his folly.
A good name [earned by honorable behavior, godly wisdom, moral courage, and personal integrity] is more desirable than great riches;And favor is better than silver and gold.
